Chapter 25 The Transaction Fails

When Qi Lu came to Jin Sanye's house, he found that he was practicing calligraphy in front of the table.

There is an old saying called looking at people by words, and Qi Lu found that Jin Sanye's calligraphy was written neatly, with edges and corners. People who have this font usually have an unruly personality hidden deep in their hearts. What made Qi Lu feel even more incredible was that he actually wrote an oracle bone inscription from the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Qi Lu couldn't help but smile and accosted: "Kimber, you are vigorous and powerful, and you have the demeanor of everyone." ”

"Xiao Qi, you are here, please sit down, I will show you something."

"I wonder what Kimber wants to show me?" Qi Lu saw that Jin Sanye threw him a folded note, so he hurriedly took it in his hand.

"I heard that you are a person who walks yin and yang, you might as well evaluate the level of the talismans I draw."

"Kimber, do you know how to draw talismans?" Qi Lu had dealt with him before, but he had never heard that Jin Sanye was interested in the five elements of yin and yang, so he quickly opened the folded paper.

This is Zhang Yun Seal, which is written in imitation of the changing shape of the sky and clouds or the ancient seal. Qi Lu knew that the cloud seal belonged to the secret art of Taoism, and it was difficult for ordinary people to grasp the mystery of this talisman, and Jin Sanye's way of writing knew at a glance that he had studied this secret technique, which surprised Qi Lu.

However, there are some minor flaws in this cloud seal, and Qi Lu pointed out the mistakes: "Jin Bo, there are some deviations in the pen at the foot of your cloud seal talisman, and it can't become a truly effective spirit talisman." ”

The foot of the symbol is to end the writing procedure of a symbol, if the foot of the symbol is written incorrectly, its effectiveness will naturally be greatly reduced. It's like a swordsman who takes a sword without a hilt, no matter how sharp the blade is, he will be afraid when facing the enemy, how can he defeat the enemy completely?

"I am not good at learning, which makes Mr. Qi smile." Jin Sanye then changed his words and said: "In my opinion, the process of drawing talismans mainly focuses on inner sincerity, so as to condense qi and gather form to achieve the realm of unity of heaven and man, so as to maximize the power of the spell caster." If you just draw a gourd with pen and ink, the effect of the spirit rune is not much better. ”

Qi Lu was stunned, although Jin Sanye's words were a bit strong, they said the essence of using spells. Is he making excuses for his mistakes, or is he a hidden ghost hunter himself? Qi Lu has no way of knowing.

But no matter what the reason, being able to tell the truth shows that the person who wrote the talisman is not a simple person, so Qi Lu asked in a deep voice: "May I ask where is the Yin and Yang Magician of Kimber?" ”

"Alas, I won't insult the teacher." Jin Sanye said: "I just learned a little bit of skin, which is far worse than my master." According to my master, I'm just a little clever, so I like to take shortcuts when learning secret arts, and I can't make big moves. ”

Qi Lu wanted to ask something more, but he saw the nanny Xiaohong come up to pour tea, and Jin Sanye also took the opportunity to change the topic and said: "Mr. Qi is a master, I won't show off the yin and yang magic in front of you, let's talk about business." ”

Qi Lu smiled and said, "I guess, Jin Bo wants to discuss the matter of Tiger Head Fang Zun with me?" ”

"Exactly."

"Looks like Kimber has decided to do this business with me?"

"Yes, but I'm a little uncomfortable with you."

Qi Lu didn't expect Jin Sanye to say his concerns so frankly, so he asked: "Although I am young, I think I am quite stable in doing things, if Jin Bo has any concerns, you might as well say it, and I can solve your worries." ”

"This Fang Zun is a national treasure-level cultural relic, and once the matter leaks out, it will be a felony. You, me, and Professor Jiang, not to mention being killed, will at least be imprisoned for more than ten years. Are you really not afraid of the law and do not think about the consequences? ”

"Man dies for wealth, and birds die for food. The professor is old, and after completing this business, he will be able to retire comfortably for the rest of his life; And I, too, can save a few decades of struggle, and it's worth the gamble. Qi Lu tried his best to make himself look like a money obsession.

"Archaeological work is not something that Old Man Jiang can do alone, how can he take this Fang Zun for himself in front of everyone?"

"Didn't you read the news about the ancient tomb a few days ago, I reminded Kim Bo that neither the cultural relics on display nor the list listed by the media did not have this tiger-headed statue, which means that it was hidden in the hands of the professor and was unknown?"

Seeing that Jin Sanye still had doubts in his eyes, Qi Lu smiled again and said, "As for how we stole Fang Zun without knowing it, that's our business, and I can't tell Jin Bo." ”

Seeing that Qi Lu was selling Guanzi, Jin Sanye's face was a little ugly, and Qi Lu lost no time in commanding him: "I'm very curious, Fang Zun hasn't been unearthed yet, Jin Bo knows that this treasure is buried in the tomb, you are really well-informed." ”

"I have been in the antique world all year round, and I still have some friends, so I naturally know a lot of things." Jin Sanye's expression was even more unnatural.

"I'm afraid it's not as simple as a friend." Qi Lu grinned and said, "I heard that the strong son who died by robbing the tomb, as well as the violent teeth who were caught, are all people under Kimber, right?" ”

"You!" Jin Sanye's face was flushed, and he was so angry that he slapped the table and stood up.

"Kimber Shao An Mo is dry." Seeing that he was angry, Qi Lu calmed down, "We are all seeking money, so why bother to inquire about each other's privacy." ”

"Mr. Qi is really a young man, admire and admire!" Jin Sanye, who was still angry just now, suddenly softened, and he said with a smile: "In our business, you can't be cautious. ”

Sure enough, it was an old fox, Qi Lu was scolding secretly in his heart, but he said with a smile on his face: "So, we can continue to talk about business?" ”

Jin Sanye tapped his hand on the table, and he could see that he was hesitating, but in the end he still showed his hole card: "This Fang Zun, I am willing to buy it for five million, but the place and time of the transaction have to be decided by me." ”

"That's not a problem." Qi Lu said: "But the price of Kimber is too low. ”

"What is the ideal price for Mr. Qi?"

"Add at least one more zero."

"You're not kidding, are you?" Jin Sanye saw him asking for a sky-high price, and his anger was overflowing.

Qi Lu took out the photo that Jiang Wenhao had already prepared from his arms and handed it to Jin Sanye and said, "If it was just a bronze square venerable, I don't think Jin Bo would have taken this big risk to buy it, are you right for this reason?" ”

Jin Sanye looked at the golden Fang Zun in the photo where all the bronze fragments had fallen off, his face changed suddenly, and the essence in his eyes suddenly appeared, which made people tremble suddenly.

Qi Lu said with a comfortable expression: "Don't forget that the professor is an expert-level figure, and there are some things that can't be hidden from him." ”

"I didn't expect you to find out this secret." Jin Sanye's eyes dimmed, like a naughty child who had been caught by someone, and he was a little unhappy.

"Fang Zun cast in gold, fifty million is not expensive, right?" Qi Lu retreated into advance, and resorted to the radical method: "The people who want to get it now are not the only ones who want to get it. If I tell other buyers this secret, do you think they are more interested? ”

"Fifty million is really not expensive." Jin Sanye stroked his chest with his hand, and seemed to be a little distracted.

This is exactly the result Qi Lu wants, seeing that he has taken the bait, Qi Lu is trying to take advantage of this to negotiate the matter, but he heard Jin Sanye ask: "Just based on your photo, how do I know if it is not a fake?" ”

"Kimber is taught, but with the current situation, I can't take you to see the real thing."

"Then why do you make me believe you?"

"Fang Zun is now hidden by the professor in a place that only he knows, and he won't reveal his treasure until it's time to trade."

Qi Lu knew that it would be difficult to convince buyers with a photo, so in order to dispel Jin Sanye's concerns, he made preparations in advance. At this time, he took out a few more photos and handed them to Jin Sanye, they were photos of the tiger's head Fang Zun taken from different angles, and the buyer could see the whole picture of Fang Zun through it.

Jin Sanye concentrated his eyes and looked at the photo in his hand carefully, and was speechless for a long time.

Qi Lu knew that he was moved, so he struck while the iron was hot and said: "If Kimber is still not at ease, you can personally inspect this treasure at the trading site then." If it's a fake, how can I hide it from your eyes, I"

Who knew that Qi Lu's words had not finished speaking, but he saw Jin Sanye's face change, and he coldly threw the photo on the table and said, "I don't want this thing." ”

"Kimber, what do you mean?" Qi Lu was startled, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

"I don't want this thing!" Jin Sanye repeated this sentence in a loud voice, and when he saw that Qi Lu still wanted to lobby him, he waved his hand a little annoyed and said, "Xiaohong, send off!" ”

The nanny came in response and said to Qi Lu, "Mr. Qi, please." ”

Qi Lu stood up in a daze, put away the photo a little embarrassed, and walked out of the Jin family's compound embarrassedly under the leadership of Xiaohong. He couldn't figure it out, obviously Jin Sanye was moved by Fang Zun, why did he temporarily change his hexagram?

Qi Lu returned to the office in frustration and sat in an office chair smoking a cigarette. Lao Wu and Ding Xiaolan saw that his face was not good, and they both came over to ask what was going on.

Qi Lu ignored them, he kept wondering what went wrong and made Jin Sanye suspicious.

Could it be that Jin Sanye had already found out that he was an undercover agent sent by Liu Chenfei, so he suspended the transaction? As soon as this idea came to mind, it was vetoed by Qi Lu.

Because if Jin Sanye found out his undercover identity, he would not have asked him to talk about Tiger Head Fang Zun today.

Qi Lu smoked a cigarette while recalling the conversation between him and Jin Sanye carefully, and did not find any flaws in his words, but how did Jin Sanye sense the impending danger and thus interrupt the transaction?

The more Qi Lu thought about it, the more he didn't understand, he didn't know what was wrong, and he felt a strong sense of failure. For a criminal master like Jin Sanye who resells cultural relics, once he becomes suspicious, it will be even more difficult to regain his trust.

Qi Lu sighed deeply, he didn't know how to report this matter to Liu Chenfei later, he could imagine in his mind Liu Chenfei's violent appearance after hearing this bad news.

At this moment, a woman walked quickly into the Kunlun office.

Qi Lu looked at her listlessly, and was suddenly so shocked that the cigarette butts fell to the ground, and the person also stood up.

The person who came turned out to be Xiaohong, the nanny of Jin Sanye's family! Could it be that Jin Sanye's rejection of himself just now was just another temptation?

Just when Qi Lu was drumming in his heart, Xiaohong walked in front of him, suddenly his legs weakened, he fell to his knees and said, "Mr. Qi, please save me!" ”
